Poker Face Season 2 Dropped With Three Episodes

It's time for a new Rian Johnson murder mystery. While we're not getting another Knives Out film just yet, the acclaimed director has brought us Poker Face, a comedic drama starring Natasha Lyonne. The series debuted its first season exclusively on streaming in 2023, establishing a compelling "mystery of the week" format featuring a rotating cast of guest stars. The connective thread is Lyonne's character, Charlie Cale, a casino worker on the run who possesses an extraordinary talent for detecting lies, which she uses to solve a variety of crimes.

Now, over two years later, Poker Face is back for its second season on Peacock. Critic Samantha Nelson, in her review of the first ten episodes, stated: "Powered by a captivating performance from Natasha Lyonne, sharp writing, and an impressive roster of comedic guest stars, Season 2 of this 'howcatchem' series may not be highbrow prestige television, but it absolutely deserves a spot on your watchlist."

Whether you're jumping in for the first time or have been patiently awaiting the new season, here's your complete guide to watching Poker Face.
